I work on computers and have found out that alcohol and water works the best to do this. It seems to be the only solution that will break down the ink that is on the laptop.

Is it on the screen? If so, the only thing I would try is if you have a dry
erase marker, test it on a very tiny part of the sharpie (color over

Sharpie with dry erase marker) and use a white cotton rag to rub both off. Do this in small incriminates if it works since the dry erase pens dry fast.

Putting liquid on the screen can cause damage. The alcohol water mix can be used on the plastic case as long as it doesn't drip into the ports. Post back with an update.
